Light guide plate 140 guides to liquid crystal panel assembly 20 by the light being provided by light source cell 150, and the panel that light guide plate 140 is formed by the Plastic transparent material such as acryhic material is made.Light guide plate 140 is for guiding the liquid crystal panel 30 that is arranged on light guide plate 140 tops into from the light of light source cell 150 transmittings.
In the present embodiment, backlight assembly 100 belongs to edge-light-type.Therefore, light source cell 150 is configured to edge-light-type structure, and in edge-light-type structure, light source cell 150 is set to a side of light guide plate 140.Light source cell 150 comprises light source.
Refer again to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, light guide plate 140 comprises light incident surface 141, upper surface 143, lower surface 142, sunk part 145 and prism pattern 144.Light incident surface 141 is formed on a side surface of light guide plate 140, and is adjacent to light source 151, and light is entered in light guide plate 140 by light incident surface 141.Upper surface 143 is perpendicular to light incident surface 141, and comprises prism pattern 144.Lower surface 142 is relative with upper surface 143 and comprise a plurality of sunk parts 145.
Light guide plate 140 comprises various patterns, thereby makes the light that enters light guide plate 140 by light incident surface 141 be drawn towards liquid crystal panel 30.Such pattern can comprise the sunk part 145 being formed in lower surface 142.
Sunk part 145 is formed in lower surface 142 with channel shape structure, and the identical direction of the direction of edge and light incident surface 141 is extended.Sunk part 145 comprises catoptrical inclined-plane, the light of the scheduled volume that provides by light incident surface 141 is reflected, thereby changes light path, makes light upwards and towards liquid crystal panel 30.For making sunk part 145 effectively change by this way light path, each sunk part 145 comprises can catoptrical the first inclined-plane 145a and the second inclined-plane 145b.The first inclined-plane 145a of each sunk part 145 and the second inclined-plane 145b form pitch angle and intersect line with lower surface 142 respectively, thereby tilt to upper surface 143.The first inclined-plane 145a of each sunk part 145 and at least one in the second inclined-plane 145b are towards light incident surface 141.The light of the scheduled volume therefore, providing by light incident surface 141 is by the first inclined-plane 145a reflection and offer liquid crystal panel 30.The pitch angle of the first inclined-plane 145a of each sunk part 145 can change as required.
Sunk part 145 can form like this, that is, along with the distance apart from light incident surface 141 increases, the spacing between adjacent recessed part 145 changes.The region between sunk part 145 of lower surface 142 (hereinafter referred to " flat surfaces ") can be formed parallel with upper surface 143, or can angulation, thereby forms the positive gradient or negative slopes with respect to upper surface 143.
Lower surface 142 coordinates with upper surface 143, so that the light providing by light incident surface 141 to be provided, thereby makes light arrive the region away from light incident surface 141.Lower surface 142 can be formed parallel with upper surface 143.Selectively, distance between lower surface 142 and upper surface 143 can reduce in the following manner gradually,, along with the distance apart from light incident surface 141 increases, distance between lower surface 142 and upper surface 143 reduces, thereby the distance that light is advanced before by the first inclined-plane 145a reflection increases to certain amount, described in the amount that increases to larger than the amount forming at a predetermined angle in the situation of lower surface 142.Therefore, through the light of light incident surface 141, can more effectively be transferred to apart from the farther distance of light incident surface 141, the light that makes requirement reflects and is transmitted to liquid crystal panel 30 from the first inclined-plane 145a of sunk part 145.
The degree of depth of sunk part 145 can change as required.The light providing from light source 151 is very strong near the position of light incident surface 141, and along with the increase of the distance apart from light incident surface 141, light weakens.Therefore, for the whole region to liquid crystal panel 30 provides light equably, it is a small amount of making the component at the light being reflected by sunk part 145 near the location of light incident surface 141, and the component of the light being reflected by sunk part 145 increases pro rata with the distance apart from light incident surface 141.
In order to change by this way the light being reflected by sunk part 145, can change the degree of depth of sunk part 145.Selectively, sunk part 145 can be made into identical size (being the identical degree of depth), and the density relevant with the number of the sunk part 145 forming in presumptive area can increase, thereby makes the amount of the light that is reflected even.
As mentioned above, the upper surface 143 of light guide plate 140 is formed with prism pattern 144.Prism pattern 144 converges the light of light guide plate 140 transmittings, thereby makes vertically to be guided on liquid crystal panel 30 through the light of light guide plate 140.
Prism pattern 144 can form by the extended configuration to light guide plate 140 opposite sides with the side from light guide plate 140, and can be formed with a plurality of continuous pattern elements, or is formed with the separated a plurality of pattern elements of predetermined space.The section of prism pattern 144 can comprise triangle, semicircle or half elliptic element." semicircle " used herein comprises the shape that is similar to a round part, is not to refer to accurate semicircle; " half elliptic " used herein comprises the shape that is similar to an oval part, is not to refer to accurate semiellipse.
The section shape of prism pattern 144 and area can change on demand.Such as, the section shape of prism pattern 144 can be that semicircle or triangular element are arranged between semiellipse element, and the sectional area of prism pattern 144 can adopt in such a way, that is, adjacent elements has different areas.
The lower surface 142 of light guide plate 140 comprises diffusing pattern 146a, and diffusing pattern 146a is for scattered light and prevent bright spot or the generation of clear zone and dim spot or dark space.Diffusing pattern 146a can be formed on the surface of sunk part 145, maybe can be formed on the flat surfaces between sunk part 145.Diffusing pattern 146a scattering is through the light of light guide plate 140 inside, thereby preventing that whole inside that light passes light guide plate 140 by multiple reflections is reflected makes light can not pass upper surface 143 outgoing.Diffusing pattern 146a is formed on the lower surface 142 of light guide plate 140, thereby to the gathering due to light or because light does not arrive the position execution compensation that ad-hoc location forms clear zone and dark space.That is, diffusing pattern 146a causes the variation of light path, and this has prevented owing to producing dark space that interference of light causes and the generation in clear zone.
Diffusing pattern 146a is formed on the lower surface 142 of light guide plate 140, and can be to form near the concentrated mode of light incident surface 141.Light guide plate 140 is included in lower surface 142 sunk part 145 forming and the prism pattern 144 forming on upper surface 143, therefore interference of light occurs and in formation dark space, position and clear zone near light incident surface 141.By forming diffusing pattern 146a near light incident surface 141, the utilizing emitted light equably from the whole region of light guide plate 140.Diffusing pattern 146a can be formed on and can extend to the region of about 70mm from light incident surface 141.
Can be by with sand-blasting machine, lower surface being processed to form diffusing pattern 146a, or can form diffusing pattern 146a by the coating of deposition scattered light.Diffusing pattern 146a can be formed on the whole lower surface 142 of light guide plate 140, or can only be formed on the region that approaches light incident surface 141 of lower surface 142.
The light source 151 of light source cell 150 provides light to liquid crystal panel 30.Backlight assembly 100 can comprise one or more light sources 151, and light source 151 is separated in the row of the length along light source cell 150, and has space between light source 151.Pointolite (as light emitting diode (LED)) or line source (as cold-cathode fluorescence lamp (CCFL) or hot-cathode fluorescent lamp (HCFL)) can be used as light source 151.
Reflector plate 160 is arranged on the below of light guide plate 140, and the light that points to below from light guide plate 140 is reflected back along the direction making progress.(described light is not by lower surface 142 internal reflections of light guide plate 140 and be not formed on sunk part 145 internal reflections in lower surface 142 for reflector plate 160 reflected light, and pass light guide plate 140), make this light reenter light guide plate 140 and can pass completely through light guide plate 140 towards liquid crystal panel 30.Therefore, reflector plate 160 reduces the loss of the light of light source 151 transmittings, and further offers the uniformity of light of liquid crystal panel 30.
Optical sheet 130 is arranged on the top of light guide plate 140, thus diffusion converge the light through light guide plate 140 transmissions.Optical sheet 130 can comprise one or more in diffusion disk (not shown), prismatic lens (not shown) and screening glass (not shown).Diffusion disk disperses the light receiving from light guide plate 140, concentrated in some region to prevent light.Prismatic lens is formed with prism, and described prism is formed on the upper surface of prismatic lens with the layout of being scheduled to, and the light that is diffused sheet diffusion is vertically focused on liquid crystal panel 30.Therefore, through the most light of prismatic lens, vertically advance, make the illuminance distribution on screening glass.In addition, the surface of screening glass protection prismatic lens, and dispersed light, thus improve photodistributed homogeneity.
